Let Go Of Depression And Hear Your Whisper

Suffering from depression can feel like the loneliest place on earth.

I have been there too.

I reached the end of my road.

Darkness covered me.

I was there in the deepest depth of an abyss,

And felt there was no room for me to return.

I felt helpless,

Fearful,

Desperate and alone.

And no one had my answer.

My search for my recovery had come to an end and I felt it was my time to leave.

I laid under the darkness of the angry clouds,

But then,

The darkness was interrupted by the sun,

Who shone down on me,

Drying my tears,

Bringing me back to life.

It was at that point that I knew it was not.

This is not your ending either.

I see you.

I know you're there,

Feeling this pain,

Feeling alone and afraid,

Not knowing which way to turn.

We are born the souls we are meant to be,

But we are guided away from our true selves.

We then spend the rest of our lives searching for our truth to appear again,

To heal over the cracks of despair,

The long nights longing for a glimmer of hope that we will find ourselves amongst the heaviness.

Finding that path can feel hard.

We can wander so far and wide that we can no longer remember that we left.

We wander through life searching and searching on the outside for our peace of happiness,

But your destiny is within you.

You have just forgotten that it's the you on the inside that you're searching for.

And when you know that,

The search can stop.

You can sit within silence and listen because you never went anywhere and the search is not on the outside,

It's on the inside.

You have not been hearing your whispers calling you home.

Your whispers on the inside.

It's time to listen.

It's time to reconnect.

But first,

It's time to let go.

See the shadow above you.

See it,

Feel it,

Hear it.

Hear what it's been telling you.

Maybe the shadow has been telling you that you are alone,

That you are afraid,

That you are failing and falling,

That life no longer loves you.

Notice where those feelings are.

Where in your body is the pain and the depression existing?

Is it in your stomach,

Your chest,

Your heart,

Your head?

Or does it cover an area?

Notice where it is.

Where in your body are these feelings?

Where are these thoughts feeding?

Where is the battle?

Where is the war?

You need to know there is no shame.

You have been suffering against your choice because you didn't know.

Now it's time to let go of the thoughts that do not serve you.

As you wander through the gentle wisps of tall,

Soft grass.

Blowing in the gentle breeze on a warm summer's day.

Buttercups,

Bluebells,

Poppies and daffodils filling the air with their sweet,

Sweet scent.

Brushing your hands through the tall grasses,

Feeling their touch.

The gentle breeze blowing past you.

The gentle footsteps you make as each step brings you closer.

Now listen.

Can you hear the whispers in the wind?

They may be faint,

But they are the whispers that brought you here to listen,

To be.

Because you are worth this life and your life loves you.

The two parts of you so often far apart while leading you away,

One bringing you home.

It's time to come home.

It's time to come home.

As you wander in this beautiful meadow,

So peacefully created just for you,

You come across a lake.

And as you walk along the rocky shore of this beautiful lake,

Notice the breeze that passes over you,

Lovingly holding you in its arms,

Telling you it knows you're there.

You are seen.

You matter.

You are loved.

You are a child of the universe,

No less than the ocean and the moon.

Dip your toes into the water.

Feel yourself.

Feel its warmth.

And walk in.

Walk into the water.

You're safe because you float.

Walk into the water and lay back as you float.

Look up to the deep blue sky and breathe.

Breathe deep.

Breathe the shadows out and away from you.

Away from your soul and breathe your life back in.

Awash with peace.

Awash with grace.

Lovingly held.

Cared for.

Wanted.

You are loved.

You are wanted.

Love you.

The deep blue sky.

A ray cloud.

Directly above.

One by one,

Raindrops fall,

Covering your body.

It's arrived to care for you.

I wash away the pain of the past.

I let go.

For what once served a purpose does no more.

We look back,

But we cannot change the path of the past.

And when we look back,

We are trapped,

Frozen in time.

We are not here and we cannot get there.

The quiet whisper within you speaks.

It's time to let go.

It's time.

Breathe deep.

Breathe into your soul.

Allow the water to wash away the pain of the past.

Sit.

Let go.

Feel the tension,

The depression draining from you.

Out from your tears,

Your fingertips,

Your toes.

Hearing your whisper getting louder and louder.

I am here.

I have always been here,

But you have not always.

I have been waiting for this moment,

For you to hear me once again.

I have missed you.

Love you.

Just be in silence as you continue to continue to let go.

Hear your whisper talking to you.

Allow it to come in time.

Pressure.

Just listen.

The cloud begins to disperse like the darkness you felt inside.

Drifting and leaving as the sun begins to shine warm.

Hello you.

You are loved.

As you leave the water,

Feel.

Allow the lightness to be felt.

Give yourself permission to allow your soul to continue healing.

I see you.

I hear you.

You are wanted.

You are needed.

You are loved.

And as you sit on the rocky shore,

Wrapped in a warm,

Cozy blanket,

Watching the horizon fade into a gentle mist as it meets the sky,

Hold yourself in love.

Love you.

Need you.

Hear your whispers,

For your journey is upon you.

In need of you.

It is now time.

Time for your whisper to get louder and to be heard.

This is your life and you can recover.

You are deserving and worthy.

You are enough and you are wanted.

Be free.

Child of the universe.

You have always been within you.

The outside search can end and your internal one can begin.

Be free.

You are as good as the ocean and the moon.

Thank you for trusting me.

Namaste.
